Hunted-Ch 10
Hotch and Dave stepped off the elevator and Dave said, "you go ahead and check on Em, I'll go check on kitten", he nodded his head as he headed on down the hall heading toward his wifes room. He stepped inside and straight over to her bed and kissed her lips gently and said, "are you sure that you're alright"?, she laid her head back against the pillow and said, "yes Aaron, I'm fine, I'm gonna be sore for a few days but I'll be back good as new in no time".
He sat down beside her and said, "I was so afraid, I thought", she gently squeezed his hand and said, "yeah me to but I'm here and I'm fine", he blew out a deep breath and then looked over at JJ and said, "how are you doing JJ"?, she said, "I'm good, hurting but I'm good". Reid smiled at his wife as he brushed a strand of hair out of her face.
Emily said, "any word on Penelope"?, Dave said, "well from what we're hearing her foot is broken and she will have to wear the cast for at least 6 to 8 weeks", Reid said, "you know it's going to be hard for Morgan to keep her off her feet". Emily laughed and said, "ohhhhh after their trip to the cabin I don't think that keeping her off her feet is going to be a problem", causing everybody to laugh.
Dave stood in the door watching and listening as Penelope continued to sing, Derek looked up and said, "it's the pain meds, she's having some sort of reaction", Dave walked over and kissed Penelope and kissed her on the top of the head. She looked up and said, "hiiiiiiiiii my italian stallion", he laughed and said, "hi kitten, how are you feeling"?, she threw her head back and giggled and said, "greatttttttttt".
Dave said ,"alright Tony the tiger take it easy", she wiggled her finger and said, "but there is something wrong"?, he looked at her and said, "what's wrong"?, she started singing, "I CAN'T GET NOOOOOOOO SATISFACTION". Derek shook his head and said, "shhhhhh baby, you need to calm down", her lip started quivering and Dave said,
"Ohhhhh that's my cue to go".
Derek said, "baby girl please don't cry, I didn't mean to hurt your feelings", she said, "you don't love me no more do you"?, he said, "of course I do, I love you more than I ever thought it was possible to love somebody". He intertwined their fingers and said, "you are the love of my life Penelope and that is never going to change".
She reached up and wiped tears away and said, "you're just saying that", he stood up and pulled a little black box out of his pocket and opened it and said, "I have loved you since the day I called you Gomez". She said, "i i is that"?, he put her hand in his and said, "Penelope Garcia will you do me the honor of making me the happiest man in the world"?, her eyes were huge as he said, "will you marry me baby girl"?, she said, "a a am I dreaming"?, he leaned in and kissed her lips gently and said, "nope, you're definitley not dreaming gorgeous".
He smiled as he pulled the ring out of the box and said, "Penelope Garcia will you marry me"?, she touched his face and said, "yes, yes, yes", he slid the ring onto her finger and then leaned forward and cupped her face in his hands. He said, "I love you", she sniffed and said, "and I love you", he then leaned in and pressed his lips against hers in a sweet and loving kiss.
They pulled apart when they heard a knock at the door, Penelope said, "come in Fran, come in", she stepped inside and said, "did I interrupt something"?, Penelope said, "your wonderful son just proposed". Fran said, "so are congratulations in order"?, she held up her hand and said, "yes they are", Fran ran over and kissed her son and hugged her future daughter in law.
Fran smiled and said, "congratulations you two, it just makes me so happy to see that you two have finally pulled your heads out of your butts", Penelope laughed and said, "ain't that the truth"?, Fran looked down at her leg and said, "how are you feeling honey"?, she said, "right now it isn't hurting at all". Derek said, "they gave her something for pain and she's having a reaction".
She said, "what kind of reaction"?, Derek said, "a few minutes ago she was singing and laughing", Fran said, "she must have a low tolerance for pain meds", Penelope said, "yeah I don't like to take medicine, not at all". Fran said, "when the nurse comes in you might want to see that she gets a different kind of pain medicine just to keep the side effects down".
Derek and Penelope both smiled and nodded their heads yes in agreement", Fran said, "so from what Dave told me one brother is dead and one is in custody and so far it's looking like there is still one on the loose". Derek said, "yeah Scott is dead and Liam is in jail but they are still searching for Sam", Penelope squeezed his hand and said, "do you think he's going to come after me again"?, he said, "if he survives his wounds he might but don't worry sweetness I'm not going to let anything happen to my beautiful fiancee, not now or ever".
They all three turned around when they heard, "YOUR WHATTTTTTT" coming from the door, Penelope smiled as she held up her hand and said, "we're getting married" and as the team all moved closer the sounds of squeals of delight filled the room.
